Entry #1
5:07 am
I picked up a rich tourist named Thaddeus Coleman who asked me to source 3 unit of clothing. The first stop was BD-00 632 Visitor beacon. Took advantage to scoop up some fuel at BD-00 632 system star before. I started a planetary scan from orbit. A beautiful green and blue planet, BD-00 632 5. Gravity was 1.8G. not suitable for landing.
A gas giant was present in the system, i decided to scan the planet.

Next stop is Mulayo system beacon after 10 jumps. My Dolphin ship have a max jump of 20ly only after a tour at the engineer. Long sometimes between destinations.
I did my best to lighten it up but still too heavy. Mass kills me.
Another fuel scooping session and the big yellow star is impressive from where i stand. I can feel the heat. Beautiful sight.
Mulayo 6 is a huge ammonia-based planet with the visitor beacon orbiting. Scan reveals indeginous lifeforms.
Deep space can be very intimidating. You really feel alone out here.

15 jumps to the next system. Passenger seems happy. The journey will be long.
I discovered a few remote system and planets, universal cartographics will surely reward me with a few millions credits. Love this job.
Amenili system. Time for fuel scooping again. Still have another system to head to, at 200ly from here. I am not back at Rhea yet.
Client wants to see Amenili AB 2, another touristic destination. A water world orbiting two binary stars. He does not know but i am discovering this planet too. I am a tourist as well so to speak. Very gratifying.
Entry #4
6:30am
Last destination: LTT 13904 system planet B 1. It has gas vents. I wish i had my scarab with me to land to explore, but as it adds too many mass i didn't bring it.
23 jumps. That one is even farther than the last.
Entry #5
7:00am
Arriving at LTT 13904 B 1 A. Passenger is excited and me too, to be honest. Landing was a bit dangerous, gravity was very low. My ship had a weight of a feather. Now we are getting back to Rhea. A long but quiet journey full of discovery.
